removing an anchor

[Kay]

I have a Word document with three graphics that were anchored in the original. I need to reformat into a two-column format. Two graphics allowed me to uncheck the "Lock anchor" box so that I was able to reposition them, but the third will not allow me to do unlock the anchor, which still shows up in the middle of the page.

What I anticipated as a 15-minute job is taking me way too much time.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

By the way, my OS is Windows 2000.

Thanks,
Kay

Hi =?Utf-8?B?S2F5?=,

I have a Word document with three graphics that were anchored in

the original. I need to reformat into a two-column format. Two
graphics allowed me to uncheck the "Lock anchor" box so that I was
able to reposition them, but the third will not allow me to do unlock
the anchor, which still shows up in the middle of the page.

You can use Edit/Cut to take the graphic out of the document. Then
click in the paragraph to which you wan the graphic anchored and
Edit/Paste. Note that an anchor lock will not prevent you from
*moving* the graphic on the page.
